This year, I will be joining the Team Tomb Raider Community and the hundreds of other gamers who have signed up to take part in Extra Life 2014, the largest charitable fundraising event in the gaming world!

Last year, the Team Tomb Raider Community raised a whopping $2,809 for charity and, with your help, we hope to top that figure this year. I haven’t decided yet whether I will stream my gaming online (this depends on time and technical restrictions) but I plan to spend the weekend playing a variety of games, ranging from the “classic” Tomb Raider games to the less taxing puzzle games on Facebook, and will live-blog/tweet about my (mis)adventures as they happen.

This year’s event will be held on the weekend of 25th October 2014, though participants also have the option of dividing the 24 hours between two or more days or choosing a day that suits them. People can, however, donate money at any time in the lead-up to Extra Life 2014 so if you have a few dollars/pounds/euros to spare and would like to do your part to help sick kids and their families in their time of need, you can make your donation online via my fundraising page.

And if you’d like to learn more about Extra Life, please visit their website or follow them on Facebook and/or Twitter. Thanks so much for reading this and for showing your support. Let’s do this for the kids!

I’m so excited to have you on the team this year, Kelly! On- or offline, we’re going to have a blast…and raise LOADS of money for the children! 😀 I encourage everyone to donate through Kelly’s page, but if anybody else wants to play for Team Tomb Raider Community, you can find more info by following the link she gave above. http://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.team&teamID=14464 😀
